lyrics
Queen Of Suburbia Sara Milonovich
I got drunk with the Queen of Suburbia, 30 miles from our threadbare hometown
The big city lights might’ve hurt you, but it sure beats that hole in the ground
Hey honey, how’s life with you these days? Did you figure it out on the way?
How’s the view through the eyes of your two kids, and those bottles of chardonnay?
Hey, Hey, Hey - ain’t it funny how life comes around?
Do we settle on something to live for or just settle down?
When we reminisced back on our childhood, you’d have thought we were living in war
As we tried not to die from the boredom of figuring out what we’re good for
Remember just after the first frost we played hide and seek in the corn
And everyone thought we were lost ‘til we came in at last to get warm
Hey, Hey, Hey - ain’t it funny how life comes around?
Do we settle on something to live for or just settle down?
Now it’s been a few years since we’ve spoken, guess there’s not much we needed to say
And I see by the pictures you posted, your second one’s makin’ her way
Let’s head up and settle our bar tab, and study ourselves in the glass
And wonder how life would’ve turned out, if we’d each chosen each other’s path
Hey, Hey, Hey - ain’t it funny how life comes around?
Do we settle on something to live for or just settle down?
Hey, Hey, Hey - are we happy with all that we found?
Looking back at the road not taken for tracks on the ground.
How I wish that I wanted what you’ve got, quiet chores and a nice cozy bed
Instead of stalking these highways and alleys, with these dreams bleeding out in my head
